岡山在住、食事と共に家飲みが多いです。 美味しく日本酒を味わえる幸せ…ありがたい✨ 温度や酒器、合わせる食材、調理法など、いろいろな組み合わせで予想外な相乗効果を発見できるおもしろさ…楽しいです😀 お酒大好きですが、アルコール分解能力が弱く、2合リミッターが外れることはありません😭

This year Moshi Furiman delicious ^ ^. No gassiness, but a moderate sweet aroma, sweet and juicy, beautiful sake! Yum 😋. Would love to try it lukewarm ✨ Nice match with motsu nabe with tonkotsu (pork bone) soy sauce 👍😊.

November 1st freshly made doburoku✨Was I relieved to see a cork with a hole in it? I spewed it out and wasted a little bit.... It's like a thick, thick drinkable yogurt, yet it has a shwashy feel on the tongue^ ^ ^. Great gassy feeling✨ Sweetness, umami, and acidity are also strong, but the aftertaste is clean... Alcohol is slightly low at 14 degrees... ✨ What a strange and delicious sake! Doburoku...yes...it's possible... 1,400 ✨Tax included

Dear Akaban Sake Brewery Freshly brewed new sake arabashiri✨ Quite gassy ❣️ Sweetness and gentle aftertaste. Yummma👍! The price of 1,400 yen for a 4-pack (tax included) is too expensive! According to the brewery, the rice is in stock and the brewing process is going well ✨. I'll stop by again to enjoy it!

It's been a while since I've had a Gozenshu I used to drink a brand called Sumiya Yahei a lot (20 years ago) ✨ This Mimasaka has a mild umami and I think it might be the No. 7 yeast ✨. Light-bodied, with a gentle sweetness, but also clean and crisp... a classic with a modern edge... a beautiful sake that I never get tired of drinking ✨.

This season's draft sake is the start of Sengoku Modern Zero ✨. Lightly sweet and sour, with a light flavor ✨. Light bodied, but can be enjoyed in a variety of Japanese and Western styles ✨. Personally, I like Kame-no-o Classic by Sentori, so I can't wait for the Nama-shu, Hi-ire, Oirigarami, and Foam ✨😛.

Jay & Nobby ^^^ Hello 😃Thank you ✨ It may be a difficult year for sake breweries to procure rice, but we hope to support the industry as a whole by consuming as much sake as possible that we don't even know about yet... 😛. Sengkou will have a parade of limited edition sake from now on, so I hope to enjoy it a lot ✨😊.

It's getting colder and I'm missing heated sake✨ This is a great place to start this year's home heated sake! It's refreshingly sweet and delicious, with a well-balanced acidity and just the right amount of soft rice ✨. Yeah, no doubt about it... 😋. It goes well with soup stock ✨.

Banshuikkon純米吟醸specialedition

Another one from the Sanyo Haii Sake Brewery. This one, which can only be purchased at the direct sales outlet, is a very luxurious sake with Yamadanishiki as the malted rice and Aizan as the premium rice. The malted rice is Yamadanishiki, and the premium rice is Aizan. I tried to compare it with Junmai Cho-Sara ✨. The aroma is lychee. The sweetness comes first, but then the umami and slight bitterness give it a nice fullness 🎵. Am I the only one who feels it's spicier than the super-hot one...? LOL! I recommend you to buy the slightly fuller specialedition at the local store ✨.

Hi zotti. My wife is a fan of Banshu Ikkyo, so when she hears that it is a direct sales store only product, she will definitely take me there 😅Banshu Ikkyo is definitely delicious, so I want to go there in time for the autumn leaves 🍁.

I got a bottle of super spicy one I've been wanting to try at a beautiful direct sales place ✨. Opened the bottle at 5°C and heard a slight pshhhh sound✨Mild aroma, light mouthfeel, gentle sweetness, apple-like acidity spreads, and when you think the umami has arrived, it finishes cleanly and smoothly. I felt a slight gas in the aftertaste ✨. The sake level is +10, but it's so refreshing, well-balanced, and easy to drink. Delicious 😋.

I'm glad I got to see it ✨ Hachikaisan is still delicious after all these years! It's like the best solution for food sake.... The taste and mild sharpness that enhances the appeal of the ingredients. It's a masterpiece ✨.

October 1, which was delicious last year too. I had a reservation at Yamaya ✨. Sweet, delicious, light bodied, slightly gassy, yet crisp ✨. Delicious on its own or as a food sake 😋. Beautiful sake quality doesn't choose what to serve with it ^ ^. I'll be back next year 🔁.

No hassles, no hassles, no hassles, no hassles, no hassles, no hassles, no hassles. This time it's straight from Aizan. We stocked it when it was still hot. Sweet and juicy with a touch of gas ✨ The sweetness of Aizan is well balanced without being too sweet ^ ^. It is very satisfying even if you drink it by itself. ❣️

This is a sake that has been aged for half a year and is served raw without being heated. It's a rich, umami sweet sake with a little bit of stagnancy✨. Great with sweet and spicy cooked taro and cheese. ❣️ The aftertaste is surprisingly refreshing so you can go on to the next saké without getting tired of drinking ✨. Delicious 😋!

We enjoyed seasonal vegetables and roasted shime saba (mackerel) at Tokijin-Matsuyama in Tobe-cho, Iyo-gun, Ehime Prefecture. Nice to meet you, Hatsuyukibai! A little mellow and fresh on the palate, it was a sweet, delicious, and gentle sake✨. It gently accompanied the food ✨. The next day we visited the brewery and bought a bottle of ogara-mi nama-shu ^ ^. I checked and there were 34 breweries and lots of sake breweries... Ehime's sake is also delicious 😋.

Mild aroma with a hint of Japanese citrus and malted rice Moderate sweetness Slightly fizzy and foamy It is a good match with fried food as it drains off the fat. The light body is well balanced by the sweetness of the ori. The label and bottle are also cool. Delicious 😋.

Good evening, zotti. I chose Kitaro because Chiyomusubi was a blank prefecture for all the prefectures. It was a great choice of brewery because it was delicious😊.

AAJI ✨Chiyomusubi is delicious 😋. I had an image of San'in sake as being heavy-boned and robust, but it is well-balanced and modern, and I feel like I was betrayed in a good way ✨

Nice to meet you Banshu Issen ✨. I found it in a supermarket when I went to Hyogo for work 💡. About 1,100 for a #4 bottle. I thought it was probably a local product. The pop-up explained that it is a long-time favorite of the locals. The aroma is mild. Sweetness in the mouthfeel with a touch of gas ✨ Gentle acidity, umami, and richness, and it goes down smoothly ✨ Wow! Delicious 😋. Day 2, chilled... Slightly sharper. The balance of sweetness and acidity is exquisite without changing the gasiness ✨. A truly versatile sake that can be paired with any ingredient ✨ Banshu Issen's basic line, you can't go wrong buying it if you see it!

The bubbles are so strong that the cork flies off the bottle ✨The bubbles overflow! The aroma is mild, sweet, juicy, and full-bodied. The gasiness is refreshing and the soft bitterness in the aftertaste is refreshing! It's a real treat ✨! You can drink it in a gulp without feeling any alcohol, but it is 15 degrees so you will get drunk 😛. The bottle, label, and white paper bottle cover are sophisticated and beautiful ✨.
